Prestorage universal WBC reduction of RBC units does not affect the incidence of transfusion reactions.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Hematology analyzers use impedance, optical, and/or immunologic techniques for counting platelets (PLTs). PLT counting in whole blood has been validated thoroughly; however, this is not the case for PLT counting in PLT concentrates (PCs), in which red cells (RBCs) are absent. Therefore, this study is focused...
